Also added (I haven’t checked this out personally) is the Blue version of Guwange!!! I also believe that Pink Sweets has been dumped, but as I write this, I don’t know if it’s emulated yet. Pretty cool stuff.

Updated with a few title screens (don’t mind the fake scanlines, I added them):

Hey emph – I tried it out with the two games I own. On my comp, they’re actually quite playable. Of course, no sound, but otherwise I get 100% speed on them. I notice the lack of slowdown a lot more on Mushihimesama than Ibara, but it’s promising news.

Now if we can only find a way to get the data back on the PCBs in case Cave stops fixing them 🙁

Yes, it’s good to know at least dumps are about should the rather sturdy SH3’s start failing. And hopefully, more westerners find out about CAVE and their creations. They deserve all recognition they can get.

Hey may I ask how you get to run these games?
They do not run on my Mame 64 0143 and I have tried to run them with an updated 0143u9, both are not working, altough people everywhere state they can emulate them.
I would be really grateful if you can help me, Thanks.

CAVE asked the MAME devs to remove the games from the source code and all builds published officially (builds using MAME source under MAME’S licence). Your only chance of running the games is finding a build somewhere that still have the SH3 emulation intact. Good luck!

My shmups collection it’s huge and i build it in one month of work.Now that my cab software is finally taking shape, I am wondering if you will like it.I play shmups exclusively on Windows 10(64 bits).I’m using of course MAME but a special version who emulates all known arcade shumps.

About me

Hi folks,

I'm a bit too old (born 1974), father of two girls and one boy and have been an avid arcade game fan since I first got to play Knuckle Joe (the game's really crap, what was Taito thinking?) but it got me hooked. Me and a couple of my friends used to ride our bikes around town just to check out the latest games. And we we're really good at playing them. Luckily for me, the game operators responsible for the machines around my home town really had a great feel for what games would be popular.

Look at my collection to see some of the titles that I now as an adult had do have. I was too young to play at the local video rental (they had two NSM cabinets and later switched one of them to a JK Cabinet) and the best operator in town, Video Games was their name.

I stood there watching the older kids play. There was the 15 year age-limit and I was only about 13 at the time. I also played a lot on Aleph cabinets. The operator that favoured those is called Adon-Bolagen.
